Craving something like this that my family used to make a lot in the summer when I was growing up, but not wanting to put a lot of mayo on it, I found this very simple recipe online and adapted it slightly.
- 3 cucumbers
- 1 sweet onion
- Dill
- Rice vinegar
Wash the cucumbers, then slice very thin. For bonus visual appeal, before slicing run a citrus zester down the cucumber. Slice the onion very thin. Put both of these in a bowl, throw on some dill and rice vinegar. Cover and refrigerate for several hours.
You want the sweetest onion you can get, unless you like strong onion breath, although I will note that it seems that the longer this sits, the more mild the onion becomes.
